  GIFT AND GRACE Romans 12:3-8 Devotional:- “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith”(V. 6) NIV   One of the means through which we can demonstrate our love to others is by using the grace and the gifts that are in our lives. As a child of God, you are privileged to enjoy two levels of gifts. The first are the talents and gifts. The second are the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There is no one who is not talented in one area or the other. It may be to cook, sing, design, draw or write. It could also be in the area of sport or decoration. But as a child of God, there is another dimension of gifts in your life given by the Holy Spirit. These are gifts of prophecy, healing, knowledge, wisdom, working of miracles, discernment of spirit, diverse tongues or interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:6-10). If you don’t know that you have any of this gift, it is because you have not care...

VOW INSTINCT

VOW INSTINCT

Genesis 28:18-22
Devotional:- “if God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on” (v.20) KJV 

 

      There are so many practices we read in the Word of God with our mere eyes that should have done our lives a great good if they are embraced. One of them is vows. Vow here means making a promise to God or man if he helps you.

Vow makes our spirit man wake up to responsibility. It makes heaven rise and support us. It releases the grace of God for the perfection of our journey or pursuit. Even your personal strength will arise for exploits as you make a vow. 

 

Several people in God’s word have employed vowing to employ God’s backing for their success. One of them is Jacob, whom we read about today. Jacob knew that his strength was not sufficient to accomplish the task or journey that lay before him. He then made a vow to God. This automatically releases God’s backing for his journey.

 

You only need to make sure that your vow is Godly – that is not for evil. Do not vow what you will not do (Ecclesiastes 5:5). Before you say it, God knows whether you will do it or not, so He will not support you if you will not. Make sure you vow to do something for God. Make sure it is an offering to the name of the Lord. Then you are sure of victory and success. You will surely sail through this year with laughter. Let your gain be for God’s glory. And you will see the kind of divine support you’ve never seen before. All strongholds in your life shall be destroyed, and you shall fly high. Those goals, those dreams shall be achieved without stress in Jesus' name.

 

Prayer: Lord, replace my weakness with your strength

“VOW MAKES YOUR DETERMINATION TO GET TO THE PEAK”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

COURAGE

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
